Mimolette and other cheeses that don't require refrigeration

"I am actually a cheese monger by profession. There are several specific cheeses you can buy that do not require any refrigeration but even with this they will not last as long. Most cheese can be stored at cooler temps and most in Europe are actually stored in caves and cellars that keep a naturally cooler temperature. You should be able to find most of these at a Whole foods or Trader Joes if you don't have a specialty cheese shop.

"Parmigiana reggiano Beemster extra aged (26 month) Beemster Paradiso Dry jacks And most other Aged Goudas that have been aged more than 2 years hardly require refrigeration. Though you may see some weeping from the cheese which is the whey of the cheese pushing its way to the surface. It may look like oil. But! As mentioned by someone else unless you are going to store whole wheels, cheese does need a bit of refrigeration unless it has a certification to not grow certain bacteria outside of refrigeration."

You may consider a zeer pot.


"...porous outer earthenware pot (lined with wet sand) containing an inner pot (which can be glazed to prevent penetration by the liquid) within which the food is placed. The evaporation of the outer liquid draws heat from the inner pot." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pot-in-pot_refrigerator
